Aren't you a little big?

Kane has had a fascination with his bouncy seat lately. It's really weird because he never really liked it that much when he was younger. The reason he is not wearing pants is because he just got back from the sitters and he had gotten into a water toy outside. His pants and shoes were a bit soggy.


This is how we get out of our seat.

One heck of a week. . .

Our week started out with Kane getting a cold. Our once sleeping very well at night son, turned into a not so good sleeper at night. He started out getting a cold last Sunday and over the course of the week, it got worse. By Wednesday, he had a fever. Matt took him to the doctor and he had the beginning of a double ear infection. We ended up staying home on Thursday: Me in the morning, Matt in the afternoon. Friday night Kane woke up 5 times. We were definitely ready for a break on Saturday.

Saturday Matt and I went up to Chicago for my friend Jamie and Chris's wedding. We had the pleasure of staying with Holly. The wedding was at the Metropolitan Club on the 67th floor of the Willis (A.K.A Sears) Tower. The only downside was that it was so foggy you could only get glimpses of the surrounding buildings. None the less it was still a wonderful event with great company.

Dad's New Toy

Matt got a new lawnmower and for some reason Kane seems to think it's his.












Don't I look cute in my polo and flip-flops. As always Kane's mouth is open catching flies! His favorite shape is the star.

Look, I got it in the right place.

Riding my tractor

Better late than never!

So not a whole lot has happened since my last post. Although my whole reason for not posting is because I really don't get a lot of internet time when I'm home (Spring Break) especially when the boy is awake and because I had to go to school two days for Solo & ensemble. My reason for being so lazy last week was because I finally gave in and started reading the Twilight Series and I haven't been able to put it down. That works out well: Matt can play his game and I can read my book. I finished the first 3 books last week and am taking my time with the 4th, being that it's the last in the series :(. So since my last post, Kane has started sleeping through the night from about 7:30 - 6:30. No complaints here. He had a very successful birthday party, which he slept through the first hour of and celebrated Easter. We also went to the Children's museum with Kim, Noah and Kenny. For some reason we never got a group shot. Probably because the kids were too busy checking everything out.

I don't exactly remember his stats from his appointment, but his height was in the 50th %, his weight was in the 25% and his head was in the 80%. No wonder he still falls over. His little body can't adequately support his big melon.
Favorite activities: throwing balls (especially in church keeping Darna and Janet on their toes in the pew ahead of us). Playing with his basketball hoop and getting into the lazy susan cabinet in the kitchen. Don't forget riding the tractor that he got for his birthday!
